It is with great pleasure that we add these prints of the magnificent soft paste porcelain of Sevres, France to our eclectic collection of prints.  When Chinese porcelain was first introduced into Europe by Venetian traders in the 14th Century, it was one of the great wonders & mysteries of the world & many efforts were made to reproduce it in France.  Finally, the discovery that specials types of clay were the foundation of soft paste porcelain gave the French porcelain industry its start in the early 1700’s and the Sevres porcelain factory was founded, backed by none other than Louis XV. 

Sevres went on to produce some of the most beautiful and highly prized porcelain of all time, widely collected by prominent & royal families all over the world, including the Kings & Queens of England, Marie Antoinette of France, and in current times most of the museums of the world.

In these prints, we see some of the most splendid products of this wonderful age of soft paste porcelain, which terminated in 1804 with the discovery of hard paste porcelain.  The colours in the prints are absolutely magnificent, being heightened by application of genuine gold paint, as in the original porcelain.

Each print measures approximately 12 inches by 17 inches on heavy paper.  There is a colored border surrounding each print, which is not fully shown in the images.  On some, this border may have minor imperfections which will easily mat out.  These are prints which command a high price on the market, so we are delighted to offer them at a comparatively reasonable price.  They are superbly decorative, especially well placed in the dining room or kitchen.
